The current research aims to identify the level of proficiency of upper-grade female primary school pupils in the elementary stage in reading comprehension skills from the viewpoint of their teachers, to detect the teachers, viewpoints about their pupils, level of proficiency in reading comprehension skills that are due to the difference in the grade, and to identify a list of reading comprehension skills that are necessary for upper grade’s students. The author used the descriptive survey method and applied the research tool (questionnaire) on a sample of (261) teachers out of (815) at a percentage of (32%), having verified their validity and reliability. She also used a set of statistical methods including: Alpha Cronbach, Pearson Correlation Coefficient, repetitions, percentages, arithmetic means, standard deviations, single analysis of variance (ANOVA) test, and Scheffe post hoc difference test. The author found that that the proficiency level of female primary school pupils in those skills is great in general as well as in the skills of direct, deductive, and creative comprehension, while it was moderate in the skills of appreciation and critical understanding. There are statistically significant differences at the level of (0.05) in direct comprehension skills due to the teaching grade variable, as it came in favor of the fourth and fifth grades. There are no statistically significant differences in the rest of the skills. Finally, in light of the research findings, a set of recommendations were made.

The purpose of this research is to analyse reading fluency and comprehension skills of different mother tongue of primary school students in the 4th grade. The effects of variables such as mother tongue and gender were examined in reading fluency and comprehension skills of different primary school students whose mother tongue is different. The working group of the study was selected by criterion sampling from the purposeful sampling methods among the students studying in primary schools in the province of Tuşba in Van. The working group consists of 201 female and 227 males, a total of 428 students. In the research, ‘Narrative Text’ collected data about reading fluency; ‘Multidimensional Fluency Scale’ measured reading prosody skills; and ‘Reading Comprehension Test’ was used to determine the reading comprehension levels. According to the findings, the students were generally divided into two groups: those whose mother tongue is Turkish, and those who is Kurdish. As a result of the research, it was revealed that the fluent reading and reading comprehension skills of primary school 4th grade students whose mother tongue is Turkish are generally higher than those whose mother tongue is Kurdish.

This paper introduces the results of a survey examining the reading habits and self-assessment of reading comprehension skills of Hungarian students in Slovakia. As the largest ethnic minority in Slovakia is Hungarian, it has extensive primary and secondary native language school networks. The purpose of this research is to map the reading habits and self-assessment of reading comprehension skills of students to answer the question how these subjective views of different age groups change and what indicators (social background, school success) they correlate with. We have chosen questionnaires composed of 28 questions as a method for examining the students’ reading habits. The total number of survey respondents was 131. There were 98 respondents from average schools where reading comprehension and reading habits are not taught separately. In that case three age groups were involved: 23 students at a secondary grammar school, 38 pupils in the second stage of primary school and 37 pupils in the first stage of primary school. Interestingly, there is no big difference in reading attitudes among the different age groups. The respondents’ answers prove that only a fraction of students read in their free time. On the other hand, the groups, regardless of age, subjectively claim that they do not have problems with reading comprehension tasks. They claim that reading is easy for them, so they understand everything that they read. It can be concluded that these statements are highly controversial with the results of international surveys. At a later stage of the research the survey was conducted in a primary school where pupils have regularly reading comprehension classes. The number of respondents from this school was 33. There were 21 pupils from the second stage and 12 pupils from the first stage of primary school. Based on the results, there are considerable differences in the answers provided by the two groups. The pupils from the primary school with reading comprehension classes differently judge their level of understanding. These results have potential implications for further research to determine the reading habits and reading comprehension skills of Hungarian pupils in Slovakia.
